Fans of Jason Voorhees have been very eager to experience the upcoming FRIDAY THE 13TH: THE GAME from Gun Media and IllFonic in partnership with Crystal Lake Entertainment. Continuing to move forward with great progress, it will not be much longer now until the new game is released.

Gun Media attended the PAX East event last week and spoke in grand detail about the upcoming FRIDAY THE 13TH: THE GAME. Lasting just over one hour long, you will find the video footage of that below which offers the most in depth scoop on the game yet.

“Co-creator Ronnie Hobbs, executive producer Randy Greenback and junior producer/community lead Ben Strauss talk about updates to Friday the 13th: The Game, including console certification, new kills, reveal new Jason models and discuss the creative process of designing an entirely new Jason Voorhees from the mind of legendary practical effects legend Tom Savini! “

FRIDAY THE 13TH: THE GAME is a third-person, asymmetrical multiplayer title where one player controls Jason Voorhees while the remaining seven control camp counselors trying to survive the night.That’s right…1v7 multiplayer set in the semi-open world of Camp Crystal Lake! It’s a classic horror fan’s dream, no shaky cam, no found footage. We want you to know we’re revitalizing the golden era of slashers, and putting you at the controls of each horrific, blood-splattered moment.

Kane Hodder reprises his role as Jason Voorhees via motion capture. Also on board with the project are FRIDAY THE 13TH Alumni Tom Savini, Harry Manfredini, and Sean S. Cunningham.

FRIDAY THE 13TH: THE GAME is being developed for PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4, for release in Early 2017.
